    Antagonistic modulation of NPY/AgRP and POMC neurons in the arcuate nucleus by noradrenalin

    Lars Paeger, Ismene Karakasilioti ... Peter Kloppenburg
    The coordinated differential modulation of satiety signaling POMC- and hunger signaling AgRP- neurons in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus assigns an important role to noradrenalin to promote feeding.

    mTORC1 in AGRP neurons integrates exteroceptive and interoceptive food-related cues in the modulation of adaptive energy expenditure in mice

    Luke K Burke, Tamana Darwish ... Clémence Blouet
    AGRP neurons integrate environmental food-related cues with internal metabolic signals to modulate interscapular brown adipose tissue thermogenesis and energy expenditure, at least in part, via mTORC1 signalling.

    Disrupted PGR-B and ESR1 signaling underlies defective decidualization linked to severe preeclampsia

    Tamara Garrido-Gomez, Nerea Castillo-Marco ... Carlos Simon
    The in vivo transcriptomic fingerprint encoding defective decidualization comprises 120 genes associated with an imbalance hormonal signaling in the decidual endometria of women who developed severe preeclampsia.

    SOX4 facilitates PGR protein stability and FOXO1 expression conducive for human endometrial decidualization

    Pinxiu Huang, Wenbo Deng ... Shuangbo Kong
    A biochemical approach shows that SOX4 guaranteed the PGR protein stability through repressing the ubiquitin E3 ligase HERC4, to make the stroma cell conducive for response to progesterone and decidualization.

    The p75 neurotrophin receptor in AgRP neurons is necessary for homeostatic feeding and food anticipation

    Brandon Podyma, Dove-Anna Johnson ... Ali Deniz Güler
    A novel neurotrophin signaling axis underpins a behavioral response to food scarcity.

    Bacterial autolysins trim cell surface peptidoglycan to prevent detection by the Drosophila innate immune system

    Magda Luciana Atilano, Pedro Matos Pereira ... Sérgio Raposo Filipe
    To avoid recognition by the immune system, bacteria use autolysins to trim fragments of peptidoglycans that are exposed on the bacterial cell wall.

    Arcuate hypothalamic AgRP and putative POMC neurons show opposite changes in spiking across multiple timescales

    Yael Mandelblat-Cerf, Rohan N Ramesh ... Mark L Andermann
    Gradual changes in the firing of specific hypothalamic neurons over many hours signal falling energy levels, while short-lived changes over seconds and minutes signal the availability of food.

    Sustained NPY signaling enables AgRP neurons to drive feeding

    Yiming Chen, Rachel A Essner ... Zachary A Knight
    A specific neuropeptide is responsible for the ability of AgRP neurons to generate long-lasting hunger.

    Excitatory transmission onto AgRP neurons is regulated by cJun NH2-terminal kinase 3 in response to metabolic stress

    Santiago Vernia, Caroline Morel ... Roger J Davis
    Metabolic stress-induced activation of the JNK3 protein regulates excitatory transmission onto AgRP neurons to regulate food consumption.

    Coupling chemosensory array formation and localization

    Alejandra Alvarado, Andreas Kjær ... Simon Ringgaard
    Formation and cell pole-localization of chemotactic signaling-arrays is a coupled process mediated by ParP, which drives localized array-assembly and regulates the localization-dynamics of its network constituents.
